Ounce Labs to Host European Executive Seminar Series on Software Security and Vulnerability

Complimentary Seminars to Address Best Practices for Application Security

WALTHAM, MA--(Marketwire - November 26, 2007) - Ounce Labs™, the industry leader in software risk analysis, today announced that it will be
hosting a complimentary executive seminar series on software security and
vulnerability. The seminars, being held in Frankfurt on Wednesday, December
5th and in London on Friday, December 7th, will address best practices for
application security. The executive seminars will also discuss protecting
confidential information and verifying compliance with internal policies
and industry regulations such as Payment Card Industry Data Security
Standard (PCI), Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) and Open Web Application Security
Project (OWASP) Top 10 list of the most serious Web application
vulnerabilities.

As security standards and regulatory requirements continue to proliferate,
companies around the world must establish application security best
practices and take immediate steps to identify and eliminate the number one source of enterprise
security vulnerabilities -- software applications. In fact, leading
industry analyst firms report that approximately 75 percent of security
attacks happen at the software application layer and by 2009 as many as 80
percent of all companies will have suffered an application security
incident.

"The combination of attacks and data security regulations is raising
awareness of source code security analysis on a worldwide basis," said
David Curran, Vice President International Sales for Ounce Labs. "The
threat environment has become increasingly hostile with more attacks
aggressively targeting insecure software applications. Under these
conditions, enterprises have the obligation to ensure source code is secure
in order to maintain data privacy and operational integrity."

The keynote speaker will be Claudia Dent, Senior Vice President of Product
Management at Ounce Labs. Claudia is a frequent speaker at industry events
on IT security and software vulnerability best practices. Prior to Ounce
Claudia held executive product management roles at IBM Rational Software
Group.
